I have a G-56 and yes it is worth getting one. You don't notice as big of jump as you would with an auto, but there is definitely a little bump in usable power.

I've run both the superchips 3815 and not the Diablo.

For me I prefer the Diablo with the G56 and noticed more response and power from the Diablo 87 tune vs the Superchips 91/93 tune.

If I had an auto, it would be Superchips for the better tans tuning ability.
